Kyle Larson, who won the pole position for Sunday’s NASCAR Chicago Street Race and is the Cup Series’ points-leader, suffered heavy damage to his car after slamming into a wall during the race.
Larson was heading toward Turn 6 on Columbus Drive when his car skidded on the wet pavement and slammed into the tire barrier before making contact with the wall behind the rubber wheels.
